Grow - don't destroy Brooklyn, the most prominent group opposing the proposed $3. The $5 billion Atlantic Yards project recently unveiled a 33-member advisory board full of famous authors and Hollywood people living in Brooklyn. The cavalcade of stars includes Steve Buscemi, Rosie Perez and Brokeback Mountain stars Heath Ledger and his wife Michelle Williams.
Celebrities hate the idea of a sports arena and nearly 7,000 new housing units in Prospect Heights. “Heath and I moved to Brooklyn for the light, space and air,” Williams lamented in a press release. God forbid that anyone should eclipse the light shining on Hollywood millionaires.
